The evening's highlight will be a rare and fascinating talk from Rachel Hogan OBE about her lifelong work to protect great apes and the conservation work she and her team complete in Cameroon.

This black-tie event will include a drinks reception, live auction of exclusive items, hosted by a world-class Christie's auctioneer, and fine dining presented by Christopher Basten, Vice President Craft Guild of Chefs.

There will also be an art exhibition by established primate artists.

All profits will go directly to the sanctuary.
